Item order

Stages top to bottom, items left to right

  1. 1

    Early game

    14,400 Souls

    Don't throw your lane before you get to T2 assistant, once you get T2 assistant you can pressure hard and usually force their guardian.

    1. High-Velocity RoundsHigh-Velocity RoundsProbably the best item in Deadlock
    2. Opening RoundsOpening RoundsGood stats, makes our gun really strong lane poke, gun spikes later with weave
    3. Extra ChargeExtra ChargeTry to save both bolt charges in lane for when assistant is up.
    4. Improved SpiritImproved SpiritSpirit good
    5. Rapid RechargeRapid RechargeSpirit spike timed with 3ap on bolt, if lane is still going at this point you should be able to force guardian.
    6. Trophy CollectorTrophy CollectorWith walker damage being gutted playing active early is the move again. I usually buy this here to time with when I hit T3 bolt but you want to make sure you have this for first rift fight.
    7. Enchanter's EmblemEnchanter's EmblemSpirit good
    8. Shadow WeaveShadow WeaveVeil walker is nerfed and new map has less veils so I think this item is better now. Hitting rabbits from invis is way easier and the ambush buff in tandem with rabbit amp lets you solo kill people.
    All item notes

    • Opening Rounds — Good stats, makes our gun really strong lane poke, gun spikes later with weave

  2. 2

    If dying too much consider one of these.

    Optional12,800 Souls
    1. Dispel MagicDispel MagicMost often defensive buy. Slowing hex is very popular right now and this with assistant up makes you almost immortal.
    2. Warp StoneWarp StoneAll around good survivability item and enables a lot of stolen ults. Usually buy vs pocket / dynamo
    3. Metal SkinMetal SkinBest anti gun item in the game. Buy if you need it to channel seven / dynamo ult or if you're getting ran down by drifter / haze / silver
    4. CounterspellCounterspellReally good in specific matchups. I buy this vs Drifter most often so his ult doesn't cc me for 12 seconds.

    Usually this order, don't fight with a giant bag hard saving for carpet like a noob. Trans cd should always be last.

    2. Magic CarpetMagic CarpetLegit the do everything item, lets you be anywhere on the map, force lanes in without fear, and enable some ults better than any other item. Use shadow weave while channeling and be the invisible UAV.

    1. Vortex WebVortex WebIf you bought shex you can upgrade to this, really strong initiation item from invis.
    2. Echo ShardEcho ShardMuch worse with the recent nerf imo, still obviously strong against grounded teams but I don't really buy this very often.
    3. ScourgeScourgeThrow on largest monkey and farm damage, really strong with how much spirit power / duration / range we get
    4. Cursed RelicCursed RelicIf you're a weak minded loser you can buy this. I've literally never bought it but its here because it is good. Makes you an insane catch hero with carpet and weave.
